Finding the best plasma tv
Plasma televisions are one of the hottest products on the market today. But with so many retailers, how do you know where you can get the best plasma television? Here are some things you should know before you before you commit yourself to the purchase.
Firstly, deciding where to buy your best plasma television is not as easy as it may sound. You will need to think about where you will go- will it be a traditional store, located around the corner, or will you get a better deal at an outlet store for a major nationwide retailer? To complicate the choice further, you now have hundreds- if not thousands- of online shops to choose from.
If you decide to buy your best new television from a ‘brick and mortar’ shop, you should first shop around the neighbourhood, comparing prices, to get the best price. Don’t forget to check whether the retailer is an authorised dealer, as this may become important down the road, if you need to return the item, or have it repaired. There are generally two types of these shops: Those which are warehouse-type stores and smaller specialty shops.
The larger retailers may be the best place for you to purchase your plasma television, as they usually have the best prices. It’s important to remember, however, that the staff that are employed may not be that well-versed in the products that they are selling and the quality of service can sometimes be very poor. If you know exactly the brand and model of the plasma television that you are looking for, then a smaller specialty retailer might be best for you.
Searching for that perfect deal online can be somewhat more difficult.

Plasma vs LCD TVs
For a layman, there seems to be no difference between a plasma and LCD TV. Both provide high-resolution, high-contrast images and both are flat, sleek and can be mounted on a wall. The difference lies in the technology that drives them.
Plasma TVs work with inert gases like xenon or neon, which are excited by electric pulses from specialized cells called pixels. This makes the gases glow. These glowing gases, in turn, produce the correct blend of red, blue and green light on the pixels. The pixels are illuminated by a fluorescent light bulb, which is driven by semiconductor software on the motherboard.
LCDs are actually thin film transistors (TFT), which contain liquid filled crystals between two plates of glass. LCDs work by blocking out unwanted light.
